Her Legacy, oil n board, 59 x 90 cm $1465.00 AUD

‘Her Legacy’ depicts the Cerberus in its current and former state, representing the plight of the Friends of the Cerberus Inc to preserve this important historical warship.  The intense sky and ocean take on a surreal, sci-fi nuance as the degraded hull of the monitor transforms into the fierce Lady of former days.  

                                                        - Jade Henderson 

Jade Henderson grew up in rural Queensland, moving to Melbourne after studying Science at Central Queensland University.  Working a myriad of jobs has allowed her to meet many diverse, fascinating people from varying backgrounds, all with different stories but with the same underlying emotions experienced by all, despite circumstance and location.  It is these emotions she seeks to depict in her unique figurative, maritime and cityscape paintings, to in turn evoke a story personal to each viewer. 

As an untrained artist, Jade has researched classical and fine art techniques and enjoys painting mostly with the Flemish technique.  She draws inspiration from many sources; old Masters like Bouguereau and Rembrandt, to inspiring contemporary artists like Robert Bolser, Graydon Parrish, and Miodrag Jankovic.  She has often been referred to as a ‘cranial artist’. 

Jade lives on the Mornington Peninsula with her fiancé, composer Vladan Zivanovic.
